Translation
It is a clan named after Kyron, whom they say is a bastard brother of Krokon; which is why the Krokonidai are held in higher esteem than the Kyronidai. They name them in three ways: Kyronidai, Philieis and Perithydai [= Perithoidai].
Greek original · Adler’s text
Κυρωνίδαι· γένος ἐστὶν ὠνομασμένον ἀπὸ Κύρωνος, ὃν νόθον ἀδελφὸν εἶναί φασι τοῦ Κρόκωνος· παρὸ καὶ ἐντιμοτέρους εἶναι τοὺς Κροκωνίδας τῶν Κυρωνίδων. τριχῆ δὲ αὐτοὺς ὀνομάζουσι, Κυρωνίδας, Φιλιεῖς καὶ Περιθύδας.
